When performance is your game, you can’t be weighed down with heavy, bulky material. This is especially true with your shoes. If your feet are heavy it takes more energy to move them, which can put you a step behind the competition. Say goodbye to bulky shoes and athletic gear with the adidas X Ghosted. These sneakers use a translucent mirageskin for a see-through appearance. It’s a single, high-performance material that is layered over a wire frame. This produces a slender, yet durable pair of sneakers that allow performance and speed unlike any other out there.
The frame is made out of carbitex, which is a flexible form of carbon plate. The construction itself is based off of a sprinter’s shoe, which is often little more than a form-fitting sleeve that slips around the foot. The adidas X Ghosted takes this concept but adds the wire frame for more protection and offers it to football players.
